U Make a Difference

Showing appreciation for those who consistently go above and beyond

We all want and need to be recognized for the contributions we make. The ‘U Make a Difference’ awards give university faculty and staff an opportunity to formally recognize each other’s efforts and contributions throughout the year.

The intent of these awards is to help promote and support a culture of recognition, making the University of Calgary a great place to work and learn.

Inuit Inukshuk symbolizes our dependence on one another and the importance of strong relationships.

Recipients of 'U Make a Difference' awards are honoured at the annual Recognition Awards Reception, where they also receive an engraved Inukshuk as a commemorative gift.
